This is NOT an accusation of POWergaming (haha...), I'm just bloody
curious how you'd do it. Currently we are using another system for
Rune Magic which doesn't cost POW (but still is more "expensive")
than Spirit Magic, but if the characters recovered POW as quickly as
90% of this list assume they'll do, i'd gladly use the original
system. However, they don't.

Archimedes was primarily a mathematician - his inventions were
applications of his mathematics, and he considered them inferior to
his physical/mathematical discoveries.
Since Man has lost the ability to understand Logic directly, they do
so through many things, of which the most common is Mathematics. In
my vision of the Malkioni and Brithini, they are extremely fascinated
with numbers, figures and formulas. Natural Philosophy is also a
fascination of theirs, in all its applications, though there is a
touch of magic to their reasoning - the animals are studied because
they are moral examples, the laws of physics resemble those of the
human mind.
And in Plato's republic, the Leaders where the one who were to be
taught Mathematics.
Leonardo is just ONE of the inhabitants of God Forgot, though one everybody knows - he is a neighbourhood fixture, not the single determining factor in the "feel" of the place. All IMG, of course.
